On the basis of extensive tests, the yield point of a particular type of mild steel-reinforcing bar is known to be normally distributed with σ = 100. The composition of bars has been slightly modified, but the modification is not believed to have affected either the normality or the value of σ. (a) Assuming this to be the case, if a sample of 25 modified bars resulted in a sample average yield point of 8439 lb, compute a 90% CI for the true average yield point of the modified bar. (b) Compute a 92% CI for the true average yield using the sample data in (a).

A soft drink company fills two-liter bottles on several different lines of production equipment. The fill volumes are normally distributed with a mean of 1.97 liters and a variance of 0.04 (liter)2 (i.e. a standard deviation of 0.2 liter) a. Find the probability that a randomly selected two-liter bottle would contain between 1.95 and 2.03 liters. b. If X is the fill volume of a randomly selected two-liter bottle, find the value of x for which P(X > x) = 0.3228.

The yearly Penn rock-paper-scissors tournament has come down to the final series between Zach and Shaya. They play a best-of-thirteen games in rock-paper-scissors to determine the final winner; in other words, they play until one player has seven wins, and that player wins the tournament. Assume that no game ends in a tie and that Zach and Shaya are equally matched, i.e. for each game, they are both equally likely to win. What is the probability that the winner of the first game between Zach and Shaya wins the tournament?
